Nonlinear holographic imaging of phase errors

Abstract

Experimental measurements and computer simulations of nonlinear holographic imaging of phase errors in laser beams are presented. The computer models are found to accurately predict the results of the experiments. Comparison with similar results by use of amplitude scatterers reveals that the image location (along the propagation path) is the same for phase and amplitude scatterers. However, the intensity and fluence of the image of a phase scatterer are significantly larger, indicating that phase objects pose a larger damage threat to optical components.
